I. this is an independent and private portrayal of jeong jinman of the crime drama a shop for killers. the character belongs to the creators of the novel and the show.II. this blog is private and selective. i only write with mutuals. i am happy to follow people i haven't written with yet, but only if you have actual writing on your blog. if we know each other, you know i prefer to write and leave most of the time. i am slow with plotting but usually have something in mind when i approach you. low activity, more common to be here during weekdays.III. while this blog is crossover friendly and multi-ship, i will not be distorting jinman's backstory or character so much that it would completely change who he is. that means i will only write him from his thirties onwards to his current age or older and mentions of his niece, jian, will be common in threads, as well as open discussions of his past and his work.IV. usual rp rules apply. no god-modding, no force shipping, no following just for the fc. i do not follow people who take this website as a soapbox for their popularity issues. i also don't follow krp blogs, attack on titan, hetalia or most slasher genre muses. due to the nature of this blog, i am not following muns who are minors and will be selective which non-adult muses i follow. and since it repeatedly happens, i will not follow (back) if there's no rules page on your blog. i softblock to keep my dash organized. that's nothing against you, just for my peace of mind.

V. if i follow you, that means i definitely want to write with you. memes are usually the best way to start interactions with me and virtually function as starters.VI. content warning for this blog and jinman as a character include mentions of violence, gore, murder and death, as well as weapons of any and all kinds. when jinman dies and jian uncovers his secret, it is assumed by everyone that he took his own life. while the topic of suicide is not discussed in depths on this blog, and the narrative later on makes clear it wasn't the case, it might be mentioned in writing or meta.VII. if we are mutuals, i'd kindly ask you to tag body horror, emotional abuse and any description of self-harm, especially of the physical kind and especially if it’s explicit.IX. all writing and graphics on this blog are mine unless stated otherwise. all meta and canon divergence of the character stems from my view of him though this blog is firmly of canon-expanding and mildly divergent nature.X. i am a slow roleplayer. it might take me up to days to reply to stuff since my muse and time fluctuates a lot, but i will try and get back to you in a timely manner!XI. on the mun: vic. 21+. she/her. english is not my first language, but i always try to do my best. take care of yourself and stay hydrated.
